Also I have a collection of original pictures and literature. For you S.F.Bowser collectors I have the Plaque from the main Bowser office buiding. in Fort Wayne, their were only two of these made and they were on the front of the building. The other Plaque is in the Fort Wayne Museum. I will selling that also. Also I have over 400 pictures taken from the Original glass Negatives from the S.F.Bowser Plant. So look for my listings soon.

Welcome Bob. Yes, I have all of your books. I've used them over and over many times through the years for information. "In the beginning", you were about the only person that had reference books for old pumps. Many thanks, Sam
